providing a web browser function. The computers can interact with each other via the
world wide web, and the system has a plurality of web servers, each having a respective
address, and software for defining a notional multi-dimensional space which contains said
browsers and in which the co-ordinates of the position of each browser in that space are
derived from the address of a server computer. There is also software that permits
interactions between said computers when the locations of their browsers relative to each
other in the notional space satisfy a predetermined requirement, for example when the
browsers are at the same position in the notional space. The system enables the playing of
a game to be incorporated into the "surfing" of the world wide web. The invention also
lies in a computer program for causing a computer to interact with another computer via a
computer network, when the program has instructions for creating a notional multi-dimensional
space, the co-ordinates of points in which are representative of network
addresses, and for causing said computer to access any two or anymore selected addresses
and for calculating distance in the notional space between the co-ordinate points
corresponding to those addresses.

Abstract: There is disclosed a connection-switched capacitor storage
system having an improved energy efficiency. When the capacitors
having their respective parallel monitors are initialized, less
power loss occurs than conventional. The capacitor storage system
comprises the plural capacitors, the parallel monitors connected
in parallel with the capacitors, respectively, switches for
switching the connections of the capacitors from a series combination
to a parallel combination or vice versa, and a control portion.
The parallel monitors bypass the charging current for the capacitors
when the terminal voltages of the capacitors exceed a given voltage,
thus limiting increases of the terminal voltages. The parallel
monitors have a function of initializing the terminal voltages
of the capacitors to their original level. The control portion
controls initialization done by the parallel monitors to initialize
the capacitor voltages to their original level based on the total
voltage of the capacitors or on the terminal voltage of a certain
capacitor typical of the capacitors. The control portion also
controls switching of the connections of the capacitors done by
the switches. The control portion causes the parallel monitors 
to initialization the capacitors near the voltage at which the
connections of the capacitors are switched by the switches. Therefore,
the initialization is done at a low voltage. The power loss is
reduced. Deterioration of the efficiency due to switching of the
connections of the capacitors is alleviated.

Abstract: An implantable cardiac stimulation device (10) and associated method
perform an automatic calibration procedure for evaluating whether automatic
capture verification can be recommended. The calibration procedure calculates
and displays a number of variables for use by a medical practitioner in
programming automatic capture operating parameters. An average paced
depolarization integral (PDI) is determined from the cardiac signals following
delivery of multiple stimulation pulse below and above capture threshold such
that both pure lead polarization signals and evoked response signals may be
analyzed. From the paced depolarization integral data, a capture threshold, a
stimulation response curve, a minimum evoked response, a maximum lead
polarization, an evoked response sensitivity, an evoked response safety margin,
and a polarization safety margin are determined. Based on these variables, the
calibration procedure determines if automatic capture verification can be
recommended. If so, the stimulation device calculates a capture detection
threshold The automatic capture verification recommendation and the
estimated calibration variables are displayed.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système moléculaire activé par un champ électrique, de préférence, un système bistable, configuré à l'intérieur d'un champ électrique généré par une paire d'électrodes, lequel système peut être utilisé, par exemple, en tant qu'encre électronique ou pour d'autres présentations visuelles. Le système moléculaire est doté d'un changement de largeur de bande interdite induit par champ électrique, lequel changement intervient par changement (réversible ou irréversible) de l'étendue de la conjugaison électronique par changement de liaison chimique, afin de changer la largeur de bande; dans un premier état, il existe une conjugaison substantielle à travers le système molécule, qui permet d'obtenir une largeur de bande interdite relativement plus étroite; dans un second état, la conjugaison substantielle est détruite, ce qui permet d'obtenir une largeur de bande interdite plus large. Le changement de la conjugaison substantielle peut être effectué selon l'un des modes opératoires suivants: (1) séparation ou recombinaison de charge accompagnée de l'augmentation ou de la réduction de l'emplacement électronique dans la molécule; (2) changement de la conjugaison substantielle par séparation ou recombinaison de charge et établissement ou rupture de liaison π. L'un des principaux avantages de ce système moléculaire consiste en un meilleur contraste. Le colorant utilisé dans le mode de réalisation décrit dans cette invention étant un colorant moléculaire et, de ce fait, réellement monoplan, aucune rétroréflexion ou aucune diffusion excessive du colorant ne devrait être constatée. Un autre avantage dudit système consiste en une meilleure résolution. Enfin, chaque molécule décrite dans la présente invention se verrouille de manière à stabiliser l'un ou l'autre de ses états de couleur.
